my weekend

Jan 30, 2005 14:23

friday night i worked and it wasn't too bad. i actually closed for the first time, so tim would work for me saturday morning and i could stay up late. got out around 10:30, went home and changed, then went up to chelsea's for the hairy apes show.

my parents were sitting at the bar when i got there :D and i saw christina, adam, and mason and it was great. i missed them. they all gave me big hugs (even mason--no weirdness at all :) yay) and i watched the show with them for a little while, then went to the other side to find ben. he was playing pool as usual. talked to ben for a few minutes then JASON from photo came up to me. i haven't seen this kid in like 3 months and i was ecstatic! 2 big hugs, lots of excited talking...man it was so good to see him. i miss him so much. anyway so we hung out for a little while, then i went back over the other side and chilled with mom and dad for a while. they bought me a couple of beers :) i introduced them to adam and jason, but not christina, mason, or ben. my dad and my brother already met ben because he took his volvo to the v shop one day on my reccommendation. werd. they gave him 15 percent off, too. anyway, so the hairy apes!

hairy apes played a BADASS show. both sets were great. they played all the songs i wanted to hear, they had me dancing again, and the crowd was really feelin it. just a great show :) my parents left after the first set, so for the second set i hung out with ben the whole time shooting pool. i went to my car to get my cue and we played teams against a couple of guys for a couple of games. after a little while jason told me he was leaving so i hugged him bye, but me and ben stayed at chelsea's til like 2:30. went back to his apartment and i drank a little more but around 3, 3:30, we went to bed. and slept together. mmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmm good ;) no details here but if you want em, ask me...cause it was hawt like FIYAH. hehe. i'm still giddy.

went to sleep around 4:30, i woke up at like 6:30 and couldn't fall asleep again, so i just laid there for a while listening to ben snore. everytime i wiggled into a different position, he pulled me close to him again...it is really nice to fall asleep and wake up in someone's arms. especially when their arms are as nice as ben's. damn. great body. anyway, we got out of ben at like 7:30 and went to a deangelos meeting at jefferson in our pajamas. however we did not arrive together and did not leave together. he sat at my table next to me but it's not like we were all lovey dovey or anything. very low key. now that he's not my boss anymore i don't care if anyone knows, but i'm not gonna broadcast it either.

meeting ended, but ben had another meeting to go to so i went back to his apartment to wait for him.he told me his back door was open, so i tried it, but i knew his roommate was inside sleeping and i didn't want to wake him up by forcing the door open (it was tough to open and makes lots of noise), so i just sat in my car listening to the cd leslie made me. i think i got through 30 songs when he called to tell me he was on his way. so he got there, and was like what now?

final fantasy 3, that's what now biotch. we sat on the couch for about an hour playing ff3 and listening to death metal from the early 90s with this really whiny english singer...it was fucking hilarious. the music yes was technically good and i didn't mind listening to it, it's just not my thing. but the singing was making me want to laugh. it made me think of spinal tap. why is all death metal about stupid shit like wizards and dark lords and dragons burninating people? whatever. his roommate woke up and the 3 of us sat around for another few hours. ben's friends from nachitoches called to say they were coming in for the basketball game and they wanted to stop by. they showed up, ben went to get beer and came back with 2 18 packs of miller lite. i was like "think you got enough ben? i dunno, you might need more." his reply was that brandon (roommate) was off today too. hehe. soooooo i hung out with ben and brandon and 3 guys i didn't know, and yet it still wasn't awkward. soon though the friends went off to the game, and me and the Bs were left chillin again. turned off ff3 to watch the game.

around 3:30, deano called me. like an idiot, i answered the phone because hey, it's deano and i knew he was going to ask me to work, but i didn't mind. because it's deano. he asked me if i could come in from like 6-8, 6-9 at the most. i said i would...then mentioned that i'd been drinking since i woke up. he sounded like he needed me though, so i told him if i quit drinking now i'd probably be fine for work. ben was like it's two hours, you're not gonna be sober. i got kinda down..finished my beer and drank one more and then i stopped. so now the plan was to get food to soak up the alcohol, then take a nap, then go to work. ben and i went to canes to get food, came back. i was broke and ben was going to buy me food but i wouldn't let him because last week he bought me a bunch of beer, and friday night he bought me a couple of em. so he fed me some fries out of his box.

around 4:30, ben said he was going to take a nap, so i went in his room with him to get my stuff. "should i nap or leave?" "nap." we got into bed and laid there for a little while. we were spooning and he had his hand under my shirt, stroking my belly...then he started kissing my neck and my ear and we ended up sleeping together again. and it was hot again. very intense. dozed for maybe 20 minutes, then i had to get up and go to work. MAN it was hard to get out of bed. i was just so sleepy, and i was at that point where i was allllmost asleep and could have slept for 3 hours. i finally got my shit together and left around 5:45. i called work to tell them i was caught in traffic (ie speeding down the interstate putting on my uniform on the straightaways and at lights when i exited) and i'd be ten minutes late. luckily i didn't have to talk to deano, AND i got there at like 6:02. i'm a badass.

i was so fucking giddy at work for the first ten minutes. they were busy when i got there so i jumped right in and busted my ass for 3 hours on apps. this new kid brian was on salads and he was annoying the fuck out of me. i mean i was really busy so i didn't have time to bullshit, and he kept asking me stupid questions.
"was the water cold when the titanic sank?"
"....are you..are you serious? yes it was cold, people froze to death."
"as soon as they hit the water?"
"......"

anyway. got out of there and decided not to go back to ben's. i was exhausted; he got a 3 hour nap and wanted me to come to chelsea's with him. i was like dude i'm across town and i'm sleepy. no big whoop. i went to leslie's though...i had to dish with my gurl. jeremiah and eric were there, so i had to hold off on the girl talk until we got a good chance. i told them up front "i don't know if i want to go into detail in front of the boys." eric said "what's the big deal we all know you got some." i said "yeah, but it's ben. it would be different if you didn't know him." jeremiah said he understood, and i thanked him. so! we smoked a joint, watched some snl, then leslie said she was going to the kitchen to get some water and i said i would join her so we could chat. and chat we did. i gave her the whole rundown. hehehe...girl talk is so much fun.

blaaaaaaah went home around 1:30 and slept.

a text message woke me this morning at 7:45. it was ben, asking me if could come in around 11:30 because will called in sick. i told him i would, he thanked me and apologized for waking me. 10:30 rolls around and i am woken up by another text message. it's ben, informing me that mike fired tim and didn't bother to find someone to cover his shift, so could i come in asap please. i got dressed and got to work in 15 minutes.

work was fine. we weren't busy, there was just a lot of prep to do. i got right into it and did my apples first thing, then i don't know, something else. next up was slicing romas, so i went to the walk-in to find em and i couldn't. so i did other prep, then we started getting a few tickets and i made salads for a while. we hit a slump, so i went to look for romas again and found them. brought them to my station. i cut about half a 3rd pan and then promptly sliced the FUCK out of my right ring fingertip. i knew it was bad before i looked at it, because those blades are sharp as fuck. what surprised me was the amount of blood.

i ran to the sink and began washing it out and realized that it was deep and it wasn't about to stop bleeding. that's when i got scared. i didn't cry and i didn't lose my cool, but i was breathing heavy and trembling. i grabbed some paper towels to wrap around it and apply pressure to stop the bleeding, and when i turned around ben was there with a bandaid, gauze, hydrogen peroxide, and tape. very gently he took my hand and rinsed off my finger and was about to clean it. "this is gonna feel good." (sarcasm.) "don't punch me." i winced but didn't cry out. carefully he put the bandaid on and taped it up made sure i was okay...i went back to work and i did things lefty for a while. he brought me a finger condom and put it on for me and said now you're protected. heh. work was fine after that and he let me go home around 1:30. he walked outside with me to smoke a cigarette and look at my finger before i left and he said i didn't need stitches, so that's good.

now i'm home, about to jump in the shower and go to a parade with leslie. let's hope my finger doesn't explode!!!!!
